I pay $286 up front for 3 years -- a bit of a discount from the annual rate. Not sure if $95/year qualifies as inexpensive though...
Thanks for the recommendation, Tremo!

After doing my own research, I decided to go with DreamHost and have not been disappointed. Just migrated my second website to them without a blip. I have had to get myself up to speed on some things I didn't know about before, but I've had the time to dive into it. Migrating email has been more difficult (*for me*), but I've been impressed by the support thus far. And the price is right: $148 for 3 years hosting two sites + email. That saved me $1800+ over the 3 years—and that's before the cost of support that I was paying at my old host (which could easily have added thousands more).

I love this forum.
